Write short notes on the capillary bed of nephrons.

Explanation

The capillary bed of the nephrons: First capillary bed of the nephron is and the other is the peritubular The glomerular capillary bed is different from other capillary beds in that it is supplied by the afferent and drained by the et arteriole. The efferent arteriole that comes out of the glomerulus forms a fine capillary network around the renal tubule called the peritubular capillaries. The efferent arteriole serving the juxta medullary nephron forms bundles of long straight vessel called vasa recta and runs parallel to the loop of Henle. Vasa recta is absent or reduced in cortical nephrons.
